Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas from all at the Reading Bus Depot.  We would like to thank everyone for the tremendous support during 2011.  It has been a remarkable year for The Reading Bus with many highlights including a charming visit from HRH The Duchess of Rothesay, the production of over 35 animated films, 52 radio shows, 4 published books as well as several e-pubs, over 4,000 youngsters onboard the Millie Tour, winning the prestigious Arts and Business Award for Young People in partnership with TAQA UK Ltd and our very first i-phone app called Apardion with AVC Media Enterprises.

For the Reading Bus team the feedback from the young people we work with are our greatest inspiration and motivation: 

"Before I presented a reading radio show, I didn't understand reading was important.  I was in the bottom reading group with my own special reading teacher.  Now my reading is much better because you need to be able to read well if you're going to present radio shows."

"I have had so much respect for helping to create this film, that I'm now going to stick in at school and try hard."

"I can't believe that my work is going to be on an i-phone app.  I'll make sure I do my very best."

Best wishes from us all and we are all looking forward to new journeys in 2012.
